ZOOOOM!!! The Ear Trainer is back!
This week the stunning and exciting change has taken place, two part melodies. This is fun because we're finally getting to a point in our training that looks and sounds like real live music, like you might actually hear. Also, this week we continue the intervals countdown; two more weeks until the long awaited improvement to that section. If you've been good, you can find the lesson guide here.
Teaching music theory, and getting those ears into shape! Tune in every week for lessons that include intervals, melodic dictations, chords, triads, rhythms and more.

Lesson #14 - The 14th Ear Trainer Lesson
Hello, you've made it back safe and sound, I'm glad to hear it.
In this episode we review a bit of what I talked about last week so as to further ingrain it into your very soul. This includes applications of the solfege to triads, and more minor mode melodic dictations. The lesson guide containing all you need to know about this lesson is here.
Make sure you tune in next week when we'll be giving the solfege a bit of a rest, and we will be doing our first ever two part melodic dictation. Also, this week the countdown starts, three more episodes until the intevals section finally gets the love it needs.

Lesson #13 - Now Listen, You
Welcome back, you know what time it is when you're back... Ear training time. Yay!!!
This week I talk your ear off about music theory. This is the longest episode to date, on account of my being so windy, but you have my word that I wont do it again. NEVER. That aside, this week we covered the chromatic solfege, and introduced two new types of scales, the harmonic minor, and the melodic minor. Yay for ear training! Yay for education!
As always, you can follow the links to this week's lesson guide.

Lesson #12 - This Time Its Interesting
In this episode:
The intervals section recives a much needed face lift by way of singing and matching pitch. The modes are still in and the melodic dictations are continuing with their aeolian theme. All of the sections of dictations are present in this episode, and as such it's duration clocks in at just over 11 minutes. It's going to be a fun one guys.
As always, you can pick up the lesson guide and answer key here.
